That would be a really great thing. When the user clicks a word we have to find out where he clicked. The data goes back to the server. The server finds out which scripts were used and generates the same HTML that is currently in the browser. Yes, it has to do something like executing the scripts. Then the server knows the revision of the clicked position. The server sends rules back to the browser how to highlight the text. I think it is not possible with less traffic and less memory consumption in the browser. But all the small DOM manipulations for inserting the just needed SPAN elements will be slower than the existing UserScript which manipulates the whole page in one innerHTML call. Yes, we could do all this on the client side with the help of the WikiTrust Sure sequences too. It will be a hard job to imitate all scripts in the hidden HTML but it is possible. But: Is there any advantage to the current UserScript?
